Jamaica's Asafa Powell set a new 100 meter world record on June 14, clocking a time of 9.77 seconds at Athens' Olympic Stadium. The record came during the Tsiklitiria Super Grand Prix meet, the first major sporting event in Athens since last summer's Olympics. Powell shaved 0.01 off the previous record of 9.78 seconds, set by Tim Montgomery in 2002. "I knew I could break the world record and I am very happy I succeeded," said Powell after the race. "If you ask me what I can do more this year, you will just have to wait until the end of this year's season to see."

Not really. You can beat it Rickshaw. Next time you try to climb Mt. Shasta, just slip. I think as you are falling you will eventually reach terminal velocity of 180fps or some such. I'm not sure of the math, but I think you would leave this guy in the dust!
